Embodied Mental Simulation and Other Mental Imagery
Wednesday, April 29, 2015 - 10:00 to 11:30
Professor Krishna, will visit Department of Marketing, CBS and present her work on embodied mental simulation. The theory of grounded cognition holds that our bodily states, actions influence generate our cognitive activity and processing. For example, participants rate hypothetical individuals more positively on socially warm characteristics when they had previously held a warm (vs. cold) cup of coffee. Even imagining an action might subconsciously influence cognitive processing which is the focus of this talk.
